Crockpot Recipe- Loaded Baked Potato Soup!

Crockpot Recipe- Loaded Baked potato Soup! It is cold, cold, COLD here at my house!! Since we moved here this past summer, we have never used the heat before. Hurricane Sandy brought us “winter-like” weather this morning and when I noticed that it was 59 degrees inside my house, I pressed the “heat” button and NOTHING happened! Nada, zilch, zip, zero!! NO HEAT at all!! So I am huddling around my gas stove in the kitchen typing away until the heat gets fixed today!! It’s supposed to be 38 degrees tonight, so I can’t get heat soon enough!!! I dislike cold weather! It gets into your bones!!

The heat guy is coming today, but even so, I decided to pull out my favorite crockpot recipe for soup to cook tonight for the boys! It’s one of those great recipes that takes little effort and everyone loves!! Add some french bread or corn bread and a tossed salad and dinner is ready!

This is also such a “forgiving” recipe. By forgiving, I mean that you can substitute evaporated milk or regular milk for the cream, and even substitute bagged Hashbrowns or “fake” potatoes (the potato flakes that come in a box) for the baking potatoes.

Comments

Hi Amy! If the hashbrowns are thawed, then about 5 hrs on low. If frozen, probably 6-7 hrs on low. It depends on the size of the potatoes themselves and if they are shredded or not. Plus, all crockpots are different. Just make sure the potatoes are tender. The great thing about this recipe is that you really cannot mess it up. I have made it so many ways (hashbrowns, leftover mashed potatoes, etc..) and it comes out great every time.
